This visualization demonstrates three recursive implementations of a `contains-key` function in Clojure, which checks whether a given key exists within a hashmap. The code defines the function variably using a loop with destructuring, sequential key comparison via `keys`, and a dissociative approach with `dissoc` and `nil` checks. It shows how different structural recursion patterns—through `recur` and `loop`—can solve the same lookup problem, relying on Clojure’s core sequence and map APIs, including `seq`, `first`, `rest`, and `empty?`.
